When a company hires a new employee, they must determine an appropriate wage based on the productivity of that employee.If they pay the employee too little, then the employee will leave after a short time and the company will have to repeat the search, hiring, training, etc.If they pay the employee too much, they will have to terminate that employee to avoid financial losses to the company.Businesses look for credible signals such as education, training, and/or experience to indicate how productive an employee will be.What signals does experience communicate?
